Erwin Schulhoff, a talented Austro-Czech composer in the generation after Mahler, fought in World War I and incorporated jazz in his compositions as the ultimate protest music of the 1920s. Dmitri Shostakovich, similarly defiant, used recurrent themes and sharp transitions to capture the tightening of a society closing in on itself in his String Quartet No. 7.

Tickets can be purchased to this show alone or attend the whole night and save by coming to “Jones/Butterfield Duo” at 9PM. Pizza will be available between the shows.
